CBT & EMDR
I am a CBT and EMDR Therapist based in Finsbury Park, North London. I am a trauma specialist and have over 10 years experience helping people overcome a range of psychological difficulties including Complex PTSD (cPTSD), PTSD, OCD, depression, anxiety issues, low self esteem, attachment issues, disordered eating and more.
My clinical experience includes working across both primary and secondary care NHS settings, specialist services and in private practice.
I offer weekly therapy sessions either in person or remotely using video.
I also offer CBT supervision to other professionals by either video or in person in Finsbury Park.
What is CBT?
CBT is an evidence-based treatment that has been shown to be very effective at helping people with a wide range of issues including anxiety and depression. It is based on the idea that your thoughts, feelings and actions are interconnected and focuses on changing your thoughts and actions to change how you feel.
If we worked together, we would use CBT to find ways of gaining clarity about your current problems and find new ways of managing difficulties to improve aspects of your life. The process is always collaborative and I work very flexibly, adapting the therapy to suit you and what you would like to achieve.
I am a fully accredited CBT therapist and have worked in both private and public services using CBT. I have supervised other CBT therapists in the NHS and have a special interest in trauma, PTSD and complex PTSD having worked in trauma services for over six years.
What is EMDR?
EMDR is a treatment used for a range of psychological issues including trauma and PTSD. It was specially designed by Francine Shapiro to help people recover from traumatic events in their lives, traumatic events which affect us in the present. It is a therapy recognised by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
EMDR can be particularly useful for processing traumatic memories quickly.
During initial consultation we would discuss which methods would be most helpful for you.
